College Football Power Rankings: The Big East Quarterbacks After Week Three

The Big East had another down week, posting a 2-3 record with only one of those wins coming against an FBS team.

West Virginia beat Maryland 31-17 of the ACC while Syracuse beat Maine of the FCS Colonial Conference.

Meanwhile, UConn was embarrassed by Temple 30-16 and Cincinnati was severely battered by ACC contender North Carolina State 31-19.

All the while, Louisville put up a fight against #24 Oregon, just barely losing 35-28.

Pittsburgh, South Florida, and Rutgers had bye weeks.

This weeks rankings include Ryan Nassib's performance against an FCS team solely for the reason that only five Big East teams played and if I didn't include it there would only be four quarterbacks to rank.

5. Zach Frazer, Connecticut

Uconn quarterback Zach Frazer had a dismal performance against Temple; completing only 16 of 31 passes for 150 yards and zero touchdowns.

Frazer still hasn't managed to throw for a touchdown against an FBS opponent, but it still is early on in the season.

One bright spot for UConn fans is that Frazer still hasn't thrown an interception. If Frazer is able to be just a little more consistent with his throws, Jordan Todman will do the rest and UConn will start to win games against FBS opponents.

2. Zach Collaros, Cincinnati

One bright spot of Cincinnati's loss to North Carolina State was the play of Cincy's quarterback, Zach Collaros.

Collaros threw for the most yards of any Big East quarterback this week with 310. He threw three touchdown passes and no interceptions.

If the rest of the team can't pull itself together in the next few weeks against #8 Oklahoma and Louisville, the idea that Cincinnati head coach Butch Jones is the new Steve Kragthorpe will loom large.
